Sony Confirms It’s Working On Next Console. Golly Gosh!
With Wii 2 news carving up the video game websites like a mo’fuckah, I suppose it was only time until Microsoft and Sony were all like “Yo!, we’re totally making new consoles as well! Love us, worship us, fiddle our knobs. Please!” That’s exactly what the CFO of Sony did today.

David O. Russell Quits On The ‘Uncharted Movie’, Praise Everything.
I like David O. Russell. I like Mark Walhberg. What I didn’t like was contemplating an adaptation of one of my favorite video game franchises of the generation, Uncharted, starring the Funky Bunch. Now I’m hoping I don’t have to sweat that anymore, since O. Russel has dropped off the project. This totally means no Wahlberg. Right? Right?!
Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer Being Called To Step Down!, Sweaty Pants No!
Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer is the source of one of the scariest and most amazing conferences ever. You know the one. Where he’s screaming and running around and he gets really sweaty and I’m sure the people in the audience brown-coated their panty liners a bit. Now a major hedge fund player David Einhorn wants to take this gem away from us. Einhorn thinks it’s time for Stevey to throw the deuces up and leave his position.
Researchers Want To Teach Robots To Build Their Own Language. We Learn Nothing From Sci-Fi.
Oh hey! There’s roughly a million sci-fi movies, television shows, novels, RPGs, poetry slams and more about the inevitable and forthcoming robotic uprising of [Year Really Soon.] Despite this, we continue to give robots the tools they need to eventually gain sentience, band together, and overthrow us and wear our faces as silly flesh banners.
Today’s example: researches want to teach robots how to build their own language.
Scientists Think Moon May Have As Much Water As Earth.
Yesterday, we spat about the possible confirmation of white holes. Well today True Believers, I have some more sizzlin theoretical heat for you. Scientists are speculating that the Moon may have as much water on it as Earth does. Let us don our Probably Senseless But Nonetheless Exciting Speculating Caps!
Microsoft Is Helping Out Young Xbox Live Hacker! Kindness!
While it’s news to me, apparently there was a scam going around Xbox Live last month. Some dude was phishing in Modern Warfare 2, and when he was caught Microsoft didn’t drop the hammer on him. They had him cozy up to their sweaty, stinking, but bizarrely comforting side.
DEFEAT. 034 – espresso self
[DEFEAT. is Rendar Frankenstein’s truest attempt at fiction. Presented in weekly episodes, the novella tells the tale of Daryl Millar – a hero who dies at the intersection of pop culture, science-fiction, war epic, and fantasy]
Bandini’s Café was lost in time.
The year outside of the diner was most certainly 1986. Ten months in and gazes were still directed skyward, accompanied by somber sentiments for the crew of the Challenger. The Boston Red Sox and the New York Mets were trading blows in the World Series. And twenty-three year old Katherine Hushaw reveled in an admiration only awarded to a Playmate of the Month.
The year inside the diner, well that was up for debate. The booths were wide and cushioned in such a way as to support the heavy aspirations of those celebrating VJ Day. The walls were decorated with yellowed posters assuring patrons that I Like Ike and asking them to Drink Pepsi-Cola. And the most recent hit that the jukebox would sing was I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch). Moreover, no one inside of the anachronistic haven had been born after the year 1940.
Except, of course, for Daryl Millar. But, not unlike the diner, Daryl was in the process of becoming timeless.
Trailer For ‘Torchwood: Miracle Day’ Gives Me Taut Nips.
Torchwood: Children of Earth snuck up on me a couple of years ago. After copious recommendations I decided to blind buy the motherfucker and see what was up. Despite not knowing anything about the franchise (a spin-off of Doctor Who), by the end of the first episode Mrs. Caffeine Powered and I were hooked. So when I heard there was going to be more Wood coming by way, I did a little hardening of my own. The trailer dropped a couple of days ago, and it does nothing less than make me descend into fanboy madness.
Hit the jump to check out the trailer.
The 3D Porn That Beat ‘Avatar’ Is Coming To North America. Victory.
Consider this a victory for all! While Hollywood rots under its own hubris and stupidity, a 3D porn that beat out Avatar in Hong Kong is coming to North America. Fuck yeah to the fuck yeah!
Have Scientists Found The First White Hole? Science Rules!
Ah, space. The glorious beyond. Also home to amazing existential theoretical wanking that is far beyond the grasp of this mind who can barely handle literature. Still though! The latest “we’ve possibly, probably, maybe, probably not, but maybe?” space news is that we may have found the first white hole.
